Well, I lost again(((
By the way, are the rules for the 1/2 stage still the same (heroes are chosen by cards, and sent in a chain to the organizer)?

Out of 6 heroes, you can choose any from two cards; the point of the chain has been lost.

It’s a shame that in game 5, I keep picking the first option three times in a row(((. I was doomed from the start:smile45: :smile35: :smile35:
It’s a pity that the chain selection was removed – at least that gave some chance.

That's not true, don't set yourself up for defeat. I'm telling you, when we played against Warmonger in the semi-finals, I also chose first in three games. And I won))
Don't forget that not all heroes are available for selection, only 6, from the cards, and it's not a fact that Valerie's counters will be on the cards against your heroes' cards. Keep your chin up and good luck!

fil0sof, Thank you very much for your support. Of course, I agree that she might not have counter-heroes, but the second player still has an advantage. And Valerie has even more advantages: she picks second and plays better. So, what are my chances... I think I would have had more chances with the chain selection (where no one picks, it's all based on luck).

You can play it now, there’s no need to wait until the 4th. Let’s continue faster.

In the games between Padme and valery, in 1, 3, and 5 duels, Padme chooses first.
There are a total of

5
games. Question:
Why were the rules changed at all, and even for the worse? It would have been better to keep the chain system.
I did vote for choosing in turns, but then there should have been at least 6 games (so that both the opponent and I would have to choose first the same number of times; if there's a tie, a random deciding game would be played).
But now, the opponent initially has an advantage – they choose second 3 times, while I only choose second 2 times, which doesn't seem entirely fair to me.
I strongly request that the original rules, as stated in #200, be restored; in my opinion, they are more fair than these.
Sincerely, Padme

B) (May 4 - May 11)
Then, the winner of each pair receives the heroes from the loser's card.
2 duels are played between the remaining players.
The winner of the first pair is the winner of the third pair.
The winner of the second pair is the winner of the fourth pair.

Heroes are chosen in advance for both duels by each player, and the organizer is notified of the choice.

Arenas: "On Board" and "Abyss" are prohibited. *

Play however you want, you can even not play at all, the main thing is to present me with the winner by the 11th.

Dude, Padme, you're totally wrong... I played it before and even won.
Well, Wiz is right, play at least 10 games, all with random settings, just PLAY it already!

What am I wrong about:eek: :D? Did I change the rules??? First, there were one set of rules, then they were changed to another without explanation, and they are so unbalanced. fil0sof, you probably participated in other tournaments too, and you definitely know that no other tournament does this and no one changes the rules at the last moment.
By the way, I still didn't get an answer to my question "WHY did they change the rules?"
You played that way by agreement, I'm really surprised that you won in that situation, either you are much stronger than your opponent, or you were just lucky with the heroes. But I have neither. Wiz just let everything go, like "play however you want," and the opponent will not agree to play by the old rules, because they are much more advantageous for him, he has already won with a score of 3-2 at least.
Regarding "just PLAY already," I can say that the tournament deadline is May 11, and it's only the 7th, so we are still within the deadline, I don't understand what the rush is. We'll play on the weekend.

WHY did you change the rules?
Initially, because the Philosopher argued that some inconsistencies existed with the actual duel mechanics. It's unclear where the Philosopher was when the tournament hadn't even started, but the rules had already been announced. Nevertheless. And I also went to meet the participants, as some arguments were put forward, such as "chaining is random and bad, we don't want it, change it."
Also, two super-brains of our time made a move, under the code name "we don't care about the rules," which contained elements of propaganda and active political and military actions.
There wasn't much choice: disqualification or changing the rules.

I understand the indignation, but, Padme, you're wrong. Everything can be played calmly; if there was a better option, I would have chosen it. Writing separate rules for each game is also highly questionable. You choose first in more games because your cards have better heroes in total, against whom it is much harder to find counter-heroes, etc.

Personally, I'm not rushing anyone; you can play even on the 10th in the evening.

6 games are impossible because it will potentially result in an even number.

Ask your questions.

I'd like to add my two cents.
I perfectly understand Padme (because everyone wants to win), but I want to point out that in the same league, the rules stated that there should be an odd number of games, and it wasn't always the case that the second player to choose won.
I also want to note that there are heroes against whom there is simply no counter (if, of course, you play well, and luck doesn't fail you). And regarding Visa's statement that Padme has stronger heroes, I draw some rather unpleasant conclusions.
By the way, the concept of a counter-hero is quite flexible. If it means defeating someone without a chance, then I must disappoint you because there is no such set of six heroes that I could defeat without a fight.
